Outlast 2 – Review

The latest game in the Outlast series is back with all its spookiness, gore and horror. This game series is one of the best in the horror genre, so lets see how it is.

Rating – 9.2/10

Outlast 2 was developed and published by Red Barrels. The game is available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Microsoft Windows and Macintosh operating systems.

Its a first person survival horror game.

The first part was a great game, honestly it scared the living daylights out of me. The environment in the game is all filled with blood and violent patients who are trying to kill you. They are all waiting for a moment to pounce on you, of course there were some other people in the game who were trying to help you.

The best thing that I like about the games in this series is that you cannot do anything except run, hide and pray that the person who is trying to kill you does not find you. All you have got is a video camera which is the only weapon that you have, well technically not a weapon, but a tool to save your life.

Outlast 2 has all the features that the first part had. But this time its better. Because the last time you were in an asylum where all hell had broken loose, but this time you are in a village in the Arizona desert which is inhabited by people who think that the world is coming to an end.

This time too you are a journalist, which is one of the best things in the game. A poor and helpless journalist who cannot do anything except well you know run, hide and pray. But this time you are with your wife who is also a journalist. Both of you are trying to investigate the murder of a pregnant woman. But then you get into trouble and some mad people are trying to cut you open.

Now to be honest I am a big fan of the horror genre and the Outlast series is one of my favorites along with Resident Evil series (Even though I did not like some of the parts), Dead Space and Fear just to name a few. Outlast is one of those of those titles which makes you have goosebumps

If you are thinking of buying a new game then I recommend you to buy this.
